Turbo Machinery Failure Prognostics
نویسندگان
چکیده
The turbomachinery systems on oil platforms are extremely sensitive, as their failure can cause total shutdown of the platform's production activity. Scheduled stoppages for preventive maintenance are effective, since qualified personnel and replacement parts are available and ready. On the other hand, shutting down a turbo machine ceases petroleum production. Not rarely, maintenance people conclude the machine could have worked much longer. Monitoring the machines’ behaviors to predict the best time to stop has been an industry trend. Failure prognosis has been performed using statistical methods and Artificial Intelligence techniques, such as Neural Networks, Fuzzy Systems and Expert Systems. This study presents the results obtained by developing an expert system based on case-based reasoning for turbomachinery failure prognostics.

Data-driven Machinery Prognostics Approach using in a Predictive Maintenance Model
Nowadays, more and more manufacturers realize the importance of adopting new maintenance technologies to enable systems to achieve near-zero downtime, so machinery prognostics that enables this paradigm shift from traditional fail-and-fix maintenance to a predict-and-prevent paradigm has arose interests from researchers. Machinery prognostics which could estimate machine condition and degradati...
متن کاملFeature Evaluation for Effective Bearing Prognostics
Rolling element bearing failure is one of the foremost causes of breakdown in rotating machinery. It is not uncommon to replace a defected/used bearing with a new one that has shorter remaining useful life than the defected one. Thus, prognostics of bearing plays critical role for increased availability and reduced cost. Effective prognostics highly depend on the quality of the extracted featur...
متن کاملRobust performance degradation assessment methods for enhanced rolling element bearing prognostics
Bearing failure is one of the foremost causes of breakdowns in rotating machinery and such failure can be catastrophic, resulting in costly downtime. One of the key issues in bearing prognostics is to detect the defect at its incipient stage and alert the operator before it develops into a catastrophic failure. Signal de-noising and extraction of the weak signature are crucial to bearing progno...

In April 1967, 42 engineers and scientists concerned with the troublesome and costly problems of mechanical failures met at the Office of Naval Research to form the Mechanical Failures Prevention Group (MFPG). The participants, who represented several government agencies and industries, met to develop a forum to exchange information and innovative ideas on methods to avoid or predict mechanical...
